Literary and Translation Agency

Bearing the Fruit of Knowledge

At Samar Kitab, we don’t just translate texts — we bridge cultures, one word at a time. From partnering with global publishers to managing literary rights and permissions, we connect authors, agencies, and readers across borders. Working at the intersection of literature, rights, and language, we collaborate with international publishers, agencies, and creators to give stories — classic and contemporary — the chance to live in new languages and reach new audiences. With linguistic mastery and cultural insight, Samar Kitab ensures that every voice resonates globally.
